My name is Roberto Márquez, I have fifty and some more years of age and currently I live in Seville, SPAIN.
My great passion is the sea, navigation and the world travels. I have been, since I was a kid, collector of seashells. Sea urchins always interested me, but not does a long time, when I really started to classify and put my collection in order.
This space is intended to be a open window to sea urchins collectors who wish to make exchanges with me, updates are regular and the species photographed are availables at the moment.
I request specimens perfectly classified, with or without spines, with the greatest number of available data and in good repair, not broken or damaged examples, please.
If you are interested in some of my pieces and want to make a trade with me please send me your offers list to the following address: shellsofmarquez@hotmail.es
